The only way not to crash it is to close all applications before restarting gnome-shell. This has already been fixed upstream at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/3329 [ Test Plan ] 1. Log-in to a Ubuntu Xorg session 2. Open some application windows 3. Press Alt+F2 4. Type 'restart' and press Enter 5. Verify that the desktop reloaded correctly. 6. Verify that the application windows that were previously open remained open. [ Where problems could occur ] The change should only affect application windows that were open before gnome-shell take over as the x11 compositor, which is not the common use-case. There is a general regression potential in the handling of x11 windows, that is all apps in a GNOME Xorg session, or legacy apps that use XWayland (such as VLC, Mattermost, or most Electron and Java apps) in a GNOME Wayland session. Watch out for the correct behaviour when opening/closing application windows.
